Hospitality is what i do. I crave the experience of sharing knowledge and expanding the guests experiences. I have worked in all aspects of the industry from being a prep cook at a Japanese Tonkatsu place, to being a server at Balthazar, to bartending on Bleecker Street, then doing all those when I opened my own places. I have a passion for beverages, I have studied the art of making a cocktail, earned worldwide recognition as a Sake Sommelier, and opened one of the first restaurants in NYC with a natural wine list(Bao 111). I love the feeling when a guest smiles and has that "wow" moment. It is our goal to give that experience to everyone who comes through our doors. I work with brands to help develop marketing plans and help to expand in the marketplace. I have worked with wine, sake and non alcoholic beverages.
